Chapter 30 You Are Finally Here (1)
一
As soon as he opened his eyes, the intense pain struck again, starting from the liver area and spreading radially.Tang Sujing let out a long sigh, knowing that the wonderful sleep was over and another long and painful day was coming, even though she just fell asleep when it was approaching dawn.As a terminal liver cancer patient, Tang Sujing had only one thing left to do in her life, and that was to pray for her quick death. She had no choice but to wait for death.

The doorbell rang, and the nanny went to open the door, then came to Tang Sujing's room door, and knocked on the door lightly: "Professor Tang, there is a guest who wants to see you."

Probably another old colleague or student, Tang Sujing thought.In fact, she is very reluctant to receive visitors, it is nothing more than some carefully forced smiles, and a bunch of words like "take care of your body" and "relax", but for her, every word is very important. Feel drained of energy.But when one is alive, one has to deal with endless human sophistication, even when one is dying.

"Please come in." Tang Sujing said in a weak tone.

The door was gently pushed open, and a thin man walked in.He looked around and said the first sentence: "This room is very dark."

Strange, I don't think I've heard this sound before.While thinking about it, Tang Sujing said, "You can open the curtain."

The man opened the curtains, and the dazzling sunlight poured in from the window, covering the whole room. Tang Sujing was dazzled by the long-lost light.After a while, she gradually got used to the light, and gradually saw the man's face clearly.This is a very young man with a face that is so handsome that it almost looks like a woman.With an inexplicable smile on his face, he stood quietly in the sun, like a delicate oil painting.

However, this is a stranger.Tang Sujing's youngest student must be ten years older than him.

"Who are you?" Tang Sujing asked.

"My name is Lu Hanyi." The young man said, "Let's get straight to the point. I'm here for your mentor, Yuan Chuanjiang."

Tang Sujing was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said: "You are not for Yuan Chuanjiang, you are for Yuan Chuanjiang's research results."

"Yes."

Today is not a weekend, and the summer sun is getting hotter and hotter, so there are not many people in the nearby community park.Lu Hanyi pushed the wheelchair and slowly circled in the sun.He doesn't seem to be afraid of heat at all, and Tang Sujing still wears long clothes in the hot summer.

"It's been a long time since I've been in the sun, it's really comfortable," Tang Sujing narrowed her eyes, "When a person is about to die, every little thing will become a luxury. Of course I have to thank you, if it wasn't for your help, my liver hurts even with morphine I can't hold it down anymore, and I only care about the pain, so I can't feel the warmth of the sun."

"Happy to help." Lu Hanyi said.

"No need to inject or take medicine, just a light touch, and the pain stopped... It seems that you are really the group of people that Teacher Yuan has been looking for, right?"

"This kind of pain relief is not a good thing, it will cause serious damage to the nervous system. Of course, for you, it is obvious that you don't need to care about it."

"You haven't answered my second sentence. You're one of the group he's been looking for, aren't you?"

Lu Hanyi pushed the wheelchair to a bench under the shade of a tree, locked the wheels, and sat down on the bench by himself.He casually glanced at the old people walking nearby and the children playing around, and there seemed to be an indescribable sadness and pity in his eyes.

"People are divided into countless groups when they are alive, but they are all the same after death, they all rot, they all turn into dry bones, and they all turn into dust." Lu Hanyi sighed softly, "So no matter what kind of People will struggle desperately to survive. Our group has been struggling for thousands of years."

"So, the clues that the teacher found from ancient myths, and those terrible discoveries in eastern Sichuan... are all true?" Tang Sujing sighed with emotion, "It's a pity that no one understands him, including me who is so proud Disciples are included. At that time, I always felt that things like myths were too illusory, and it was a bit pretentious to find traces of reality from them. So after his death, I turned to study folklore, which is a science It has a lot in common with mythology.”

"The history of human existence is a myth. It's a pity that few people can understand this." Lu Hanyi stared at a colorful butterfly in the flowers beside him.

"I don't quite understand. If the teacher really discovered you people, then he is just a discoverer. What use can he be to you?" Tang Sujing asked, "Or... are you actually here to kill people?"

"If I'm really here to kill people, wouldn't it be a relief for you?" Lu Hanyi smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to grab the butterfly nimbly.His movements were quick and gentle, and he only caught one of the butterfly's wings without hurting his body.But after the butterfly struggled between his fingers for a while, it slowly stopped moving.Lu Hanyi let go of his fingers, and the butterfly fell to the ground like a piece of colored paper.

"The current laws in China do not yet support euthanasia, but I... am a person out of the law's control. I can help you without any pain or discomfort, just like falling asleep." Lu Hanyi said At the time of life and death, the smile on his face was still warm, "Of course, I also need you to do me a favor."

"I see," Tang Sujing looked at Lu Hanyi, "The teacher must have discovered something that you are also very interested in, right? If I guessed correctly, it has something to do with the Taoist temple in eastern Sichuan."

"I don't have to deny it, so this is a fair deal." Lu Hanyi said.

Tang Sujing lowered her head and pondered for a moment, seemingly hesitating. When she raised her head again, there was a slight pain on her face.

"The pain started again so soon? It seems that your condition is worse than I imagined. What's the point of living like this?" Lu Hanyi's voice seemed to contain some kind of temptation.

Tang Sujing didn't answer, her hands in her pockets were clasped together through the fabric, still hesitating.She raised her head slightly, looked at the bright and warm sunlight leaking from the shade of the trees, and finally let out a long breath: "When the teacher passed away, all the materials brought to the country were destroyed, but I sorted them out. There may be some important things in all the materials he left in the institute. However, those materials are no longer in my hands, and I am not sure whether they still exist now."

"Did someone take it away?" Lu Hanyi asked.

Tang Sujing nodded: "Yes. I can tell you who that person is, but I have one condition."

"What conditions?"

"I'm already dying. I got divorced many years ago, and my children moved abroad with my father. I don't have any worries in this world anymore," Tang Sujing said, "but you came to me today, which inspired me Curiosity. I hope you can tell me clearly who you are and what the teacher seeks and fears. After listening, you can... let me fall into eternal sleep without worrying I'm going to talk about it."

"This can satisfy you," Lu Hanyi said happily, "I'm always generous to dying people."

After half an hour.

Lu Hanyi once again helped Tang Sujing paralyze her pain-sensing nerves, making her unable to feel the pain temporarily, but her expression was still weird.There was a deep fear and despair on that face at first, but soon, the fear and despair disappeared, replaced by a mocking smile.

"After I die, I don't care about the flood... Anyway, I will leave this world soon, so why worry about the fate of others?" Tang Sujing said with a smile, "But this secret is really scary enough. No wonder the teacher gave up on it back then. Those subjects that can help him advance, put all his life into it. I hope you can find that person, so that the teacher's hard work will not be in vain."

"I will, of course not for Yuan Chuanjiang." Lu Hanyi said.

"Then, goodbye." On Tang Sujing's old face suffering from illness, there was a kind of gentle and comfortable tranquility like a breeze, "I have no regrets in this world."

Lu Hanyi nodded solemnly, gently pressed his left hand on his heart, as if to show some kind of solemnity, and then put his right hand on Tang Sujing's shoulder.

When he left the park, it was already noon, and the violent sunlight made people hide in their homes.Only Tang Sujing's wheelchair was still parked under the shade of the tree. The skinny old man sat on the wheelchair with his head down, as if he was asleep, with a peaceful smile on his lips.

Time stopped on the train.

The train was suspended in mid-air, suspended in a mysterious cloud.

I was the only one on the train who was still able to move.

Later, Fons defined the word "step by step" in this way: at the beginning, you will be surprised by everything you see, and when you get used to seeing it, you will be able to handle the big scenes.After Lin Jinglu pierced his absolute resistance to the word "supernatural", he felt that he had gradually found a broad feeling.

So although the big scene right now was indeed big enough, he panicked for a little while, but quickly calmed down.He checked left and right in the train, walked through several carriages in a row, and confirmed that the situation in each carriage was the same.Indeed, everything in the train was no longer moving forward along the time axis, but completely frozen, except——himself.Such a scene is very suitable for a thief or a bus pervert...

While inspecting the cars, he looked out the windows in each car, but everywhere he saw only fog.It seemed that the train, hundreds of meters long, had been lifted into the air, or transferred to some unknown territory.

How to break this inexplicable captivity and return to the normal world?Feng Si returned to his seat and sat down helplessly in a daze.

He also thought about breaking the sealed glass window and poking his head out, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't even know the nature of the composition of those clouds, so it was better not to take risks casually, because it would be terrible if it was poisonous.

He suddenly remembered that he still had a mobile phone on him, but when he took it out, he saw that there was no fluke. It was not just a problem of no signal. The mobile phone seemed to be turned into a brick, and the screen could not even be turned on.He put the phone back in frustration, accidentally slipped his hand, and the phone fell to the ground.When he bent down to pick up his phone, he heard someone talking.

"Don't bother, the phone is useless here." A man's voice sounded, very loud in the silent train.

Fens turned his head in horror, and saw a tall and thin man walking from the other side of the carriage.This person seemed to be in his 30s, with a cold and thin face without the slightest expression, coupled with his vigorous figure and gait, gave Feng Si a feeling of deja vu.But when I think about it carefully, I don't seem to know anyone with a similar build.

"Who are you? Did you bring the train here?" asked Fons.

"No." The other party simply said two words.

"But you and I are the only ones who can move in this train, and you seem to know a little bit of the reason, can you tell me?" Feng Si continued to ask.

"Simply put, this is a brand new space, different from the space of the world you are in." The man said, "The train has been involved in this space, including everyone and everything on the train, including you and me."

"Then why are the other things solidified, but the two of us can still move?" Fons raised this crucial question.

"The law of space is different, of course they lose their vitality," the man said, "but you and I are indeed unaffected. But I can't explain it to you in detail."

"What's so hard to guess?" Feng Si snorted, "For the past few months, this sentence has been jumping under my nose: I'm fucking different from others, but you bastards just don't Ken tell me what the hell is different about me than everybody else."

"That's right," the man nodded, he didn't seem to be angry at being called a "bastard" by Feng Si, "saved me a lot of words. Goodbye."

"Wait, goodbye?" Feng Si was taken aback, "Where are you going?"

"Of course I went back and sat in my seat—otherwise where else would I go?" The man seemed surprised that Fence would ask such a stupid question, but there was still no expression on that paste-like face.

Feng Si felt that he could still maintain a calm mind when facing Lin Jinglu and He Yifan, but he couldn't help but feel an unknown anger in front of this strange man: "You don't seem to be nervous at all about the current situation, you are not afraid of being here. Slowly starve to death?"

"No, it will be over in a while." After the man finished speaking, he turned around and walked back.

It will be over in a while, the man said.Although there was still no explanation, but for some reason, there was a convincing force in his words, which made Feng Si slightly relieved.He thought for a while, then shouted again: "There is one more question, is it a coincidence that you and I appeared on the train at the same time?"

"Of course not." The man said in that angry "brother, how could you ask such a stupid question" tone.

Feng Si was stunned for a moment, realizing that he really asked a stupid question this time.Whether it's stinky dog ​​shit or sweet pastry, he has been targeted by countless people, and this man is naturally following the train he got on.

"Then are you going to go into the mountains with me?" Feng Si asked again, "Just as a companion?"

"No need, I like to be alone." The man waved his hand, "Anyway, you should know that in this world, many people's eyes are already focused on you, and I'm not the only one."

He paused, thought for a while, and added: "By the way, you might feel a little uncomfortable after a while. Be prepared."

After saying this nonsense, the man left as expected.Feng Si wanted to catch up, but knew that it was pointless to catch up with him, so he could only sit down again.The fog outside the window was still thick, blocking all sight, making it impossible to see the surroundings.

Feng Si pressed his face to the window glass, staring at the thick fog in a daze, while pondering what the man said.According to his explanation, the train has now been completely transferred to a different dimension. The natural laws in this space seem to be completely different from the daily space, so the people on the train have become clay sculptures, so the tears that are dripping are also Can hover in mid-air.But it happened that he and that unknown man could move freely.

Is it because of that benign tumor in my brain?Is it really attached to the brain?Feng Si knocked on his forehead subconsciously.He found that he seemed to be approaching the truth step by step, but he kept encountering more mysteries.

Unknowingly, he was a little distracted, and after a while, he suddenly noticed that the thick fog in front of him seemed to have changed.Those dense clouds no longer diffused randomly, but slowly arranged into a certain shape.

Feng Si stood up all of a sudden, staring at the strange and unpredictable cloud outside the window.That's right, the fog started to move regularly, some parts dissipated to form a space, and others gathered together, gradually forming a huge three-dimensional pattern in his sight.

Looking at the sculpture-like three-dimensional pattern, Feng Si felt that his blood was about to freeze—it was a head magnified hundreds of times, a human head.

His own head!

He blinked, and carefully identified it. He was right, it was indeed his face shape, his facial features and his head shape.Now this huge head is floating outside the window of the train. Two eyes bigger than a human body are silently staring at him. Except for the wrong color, every other detail is really lifelike. Even the most recent For two days, the pimples on his forehead due to getting angry were still there, which was exactly the same as his.

Is it watching me?Fons had this strange idea.Looking at myself and myself is already funny enough, but they don't seem to know each other, and they are testing each other.
